WORK HISTORY
Senior Android Engineer @Just Eat Takeaway.com
Bristol, GB
I\'ve implemented numerous features, helped track and fix bugs, been a part of the release process of the customer-facing Android app many times. I\'ve also done such things as migrating the codebase from Gradle scripts to Kotlin DSL or updating it to use AndroidX instead of the Support libraries. I was responsible for getting the app ready for the Huawei devices which don\'t have GooglePlayServices.I\'ve worked closely in several different teams and learnt to communicate well with non-technical people. I\'ve taken an active part in creating or changing our processes, as well as suggested improvements (and then implemented them) to our codebase.
EDUCATION

SKILLS
ABOUT JAKUB PIĄTKOWSKI
The first piece of code I ever wrote was in C, when I was about 10 - my dad helped me code a very simple Heroes of Might & Magic 3 bestiary application. Later on I did some coding in high school and then decided to do a computer science degree, during which I coded some more.However, it wasn\'t until I started working as a professional that I understood what I really needed to be happy in programming: my software had to serve some \"higher purpose\": be used by people, help some tasks to be performed more efficiently, whether it is to be presented to customers or integrated into a bigger framework, under the hood of a larger system.During my university times and later on, I was often wondering what I expect from a job. Believe it or not, but I had serious problems trying to answer that question. It was probably through experience that I finally understood: I just love coding - it\'s as simple as that. I love my software being useful in any way, I love working with the code - both writing something new and maintaining older programs. Oh, and that feeling you experience when you solve a particularly difficult problem after hours or days of trying to figure it out - I find it most satisfying.
